Prospect Health is working with a well-established medical centre in the Canberra region looking to welcome an experienced UK GP to its team.

This is an opportunity to build a rewarding career in Australian General Practice, with excellent earning potential, greater flexibility over how you structure your working week and the chance to enjoy a very different lifestyle outside work.

The role offers:

• Potential earnings of AUD $230,000 - $600,000+ per year
• Strong existing patient demand and the opportunity to establish a full patient book quickly
• Flexible working days and hours
• Full-time and part-time opportunities
• DPA location
• Registered Nurse and treatment room support
• Pathology and allied health services nearby
• Established systems, technology and administrative support
• Support for GPs wishing to develop particular clinical interests

Why make the move to Australia?

For many UK GPs, moving to Australia can offer the opportunity to combine a rewarding clinical career with greater control over how and when you work.

And the process has become more straightforward for many UK-trained GPs. Doctors holding an eligible MRCGP (UK) together with a CCT may be able to apply directly through Australia's Expedited Specialist pathway, rather than undergoing an individual specialist college assessment.

Prospect Health can help you understand your eligibility and guide you through the registration, immigration and relocation process from the UK to Australia.

Why Canberra?

• Culture, nature and space, without giving up the benefits of city living.
• Canberra offers something slightly different from Australia's larger cities. It combines restaurants, cafés, cultural attractions and excellent amenities with lakes, mountains, bushland and open space right on your doorstep.
• More than half of the ACT is protected nature reserve, while travelling across the city is refreshingly straightforward journeys of around 30 minutes can take you to most parts of Canberra.
• It's a particularly attractive option if you're looking for:
• Less time spent commuting and more time outside work
• Easy access to countryside, walking, cycling and outdoor activities
• Excellent schools and a family-friendly environment
• A vibrant food, arts and cultural scene
• Sydney, the NSW South Coast and the Snowy Mountains all within easy reach
